Tampa Bay Rays
The Rays have now won 9 of 11 to pull within two games of the Yankees for the top spot in the AL East, and the fourth in the American League overall.
Brandon Lowe leads the Rays in most offense categories. Lowe leads the ballclub in home runs (7), RBI’s (20), average (.348), and slugging (.738).
Blake Snell is scheduled to be on the mound on Tuesday night. Snell is coming off of his best outing of the season after tossing five scoreless in a win over the Red Sox. He has a 2.08 ERA to go with his 1-0 record.
New York Yankees
The Yankees enter this series with a two-game lead over the Rays in the division race. New York has yet to lose a game at home this season, going 9-0 in Yankee Stadium compared to just .500 (6-6) on the road.
Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, and DJ LaMahieu are all on the IL for the next 10 days so look for other teams to take advantage of their weak spot.
New York has right-handed veteran Masahiro Tanaka going for them on Tuesday night. Tanaka has yet to gain a win or loss this year in three starts but has performed well, posting a 2.31 ERA and 1.11 WHIP.

Free Tampa Bay Rays vs. New York Yankees MLB Prediction: New York is cheap!
I like the Rays here to get the win and serve the Yanks their first loss at home on the year. Blake Snell has struggled to start the year but is coming into his Cy Young form that he once captured in 2018. I’ll take the Rays Moneyline.
